I wonder if this sets a helpful precedent for China to remove a law breaking, dangerous President and take him back to China to face trial.

i think if you want to have those disgusting LED headlights on your car, you should have to do a test where they blast you point blank with your own headlights and then you have 15 seconds to successfully complete some sort of vision-based task, and if you can't do it they push your car off a cliff

This is outstanding work by @ledbydonkeys.org. The Real BBC Bias Story, exposing the lies and disinformation of the political right. People must see this, as the mainstream media are failing to report the real story here. Please share widely. www.youtube.com/shorts/h5kF1...

The days are getting shorter now, but the light that’s here is wonderful on the autumn leaves, sadly my photography skills don’t do it justice

Shame on Waitrose, hopefully the lack of decency will have a cost impact. I certainly won’t shop there again. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Happy Friday, just read this funny, rude romantic fiction, hot off the press recommend as a great holiday read: guardianbookshop.com/alice-carver...

Sure Start was, imho as a service user 15 years ago, the best thing the last Labour governments did. Shamelessly and shamefully disbanded and defunded by the Tories in 2010- because the right wing don’t believe in levelling opportunities.

V&A announces details for David Bowie Centre

Pakistan to nominate Trump for Nobel Peace Prize- The world has gone completely mad!

You know how we have "single-issue voters?" I think we have "single-issue progressives." Like, progressive bros who only want to advance one issue, but otherwise have no encompassing value system behind their politics. Self-righteously willing to throw 99% of progress away for 1 hill to die on. 🧵

#wildflowerhour The cliffs in Devon are wonderful at the moment, so many shades of Thrift, alongside Bladder Campion, Tormentil, sweet little Squil, Foxgloves and Bluebells, it’s stunning, great birds too.

Suddenly you realise that the tories are not the worst thing that could happen.

Thank you to everyone around the world who helped bring Tesla's net income down 71%! Now THAT is a successful boycott. 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏

OMG stop being dramatic hun, you'll be back in a couple of days.

I'm not sure I could guess Robert Galbraith's pronouns correctly.

And if you’d rather go straight to the source, here it is. Lots of nature apps give you instant answers. What’s that bird? What’s that plant? Encounter works in a deeper, subtler way, encouraging curiosity and engagement. www.encounter-nature.com

I kind of want to go

So it’s kind of the government to give us a list of US products to avoid to support Ukraine and common decency, assets.publishing.service.gov.uk/media/67ee66... but it’s mostly weird stuff that I wasn’t going to buy anyway. What products should we boycott??

For Americans who didn’t get the joy of living through the Truss/Kwarteng budget, this is the point where the government starts to call the stock market left-wing and/or woke.

Ladies, what's stopping you dressing like this? #TOTP

The truth

Becky Burke of Book Island (a picture book publisher in the UK founded by my fellow Tokarczuk translator Greet Pauwelijn) was "detained" by ICE at the Canadian border on 2/28. Her father asked that her story be shared in case someone can help her. He writes:

Good morning all! 🇺🇦 Please share everywhere. 🙏🏻

This has been a great January - the terrifickest, biglyest January ever! People will talk about this January forever, as the greatest month of all the months! Anyone who doesn't like this January must be a woke lefty snowflake. Or an immigrant who EATS CATS!

This blew up.

Think about this.

Morning. Happy New Year. A while ago I ran a series of daily tweets about birdsong. The idea was to encourage people to pay attention to the natural sounds around them, and learn to identify birds from their sounds alone (which, after all, is often the only clue you get to their presence).

I always feel that as a society we should be given a few exemptions from death, David Bowie’s birthday today- I would have kept Humphrey Littleton too.
